Regarding not reusing TTY bolts, found these:

With that said I couldn't find any info on identifying a TTA vs TTY bolt other than by torquing it and seeing if it stretched. Again, I've reused the bolts for the suspension and calipers multiple times with some blue LocTite and torquing them down "gudentite" and nothing has fallen off.
74lbs plus another 120degrees of rotation.
